The people of Napoleonville are
beginning to rebuild and soon the
ruins of the late conflagration will
be among the memories of the past

The City Item says : "People are
beginning to inquire what has be
come of that good old Democratic
doctiijie of rotation of office."
One would suppose so judging
from the returns of the late elec'
tion.
Whilst sugar brings low figures
the demand seems to be good, aud
purchasers take up all that is put
upon the market. Last spring the
demand was almost dead.
Au increased demaud may be
followed by increased prices.
The rivers are low at ail points.
At Cairo, 9 feet, 11 inches above
low water mark ; at St. Louis, 13
feet, 6 inches ; at Louisville, 3 ft., 6
in.; at Memphis. 5 ft., 3 in.; at
Vicksburg, 6 ft., 1 iuch.
It is rising at Cairo, and St.
Louis ; tailing at Lonisville, Mem
phis and Vicksburg. The Arkan
sas and Red rivers are both low.
The water in the Bayou, at Tbib
odaux, stands at 9 inches above
low water mark.
No indications of large rivers are
anywhere perceptible.
The Picayune said that 2000 Dem
ocratic votes were not cast in the
First Congressional District of
New Oilcans, and adds that those
2000 voters were the very men who
would have voted'for Hunt andelec
ted him, if they had thought that
there w ould be a fair election and a
fair count. If such be the fact aud
Hunt has lost his election on that
account, he should introduce a£bill
into Coogress as soon as it meets
in December, for an appropriation
of $5000.10 to have the can f of eve
xy one of those voters bored for the
simples.
There is mnch speculation in re
gard to the composition of the cabi
■et of President Cleveland. He is
fhlly able to make his own selec
lions and if he does not make a bet
ter one than some of hls predeces
sors iiavq been choosing he wil) dis
appoint bis Mends.
There seems to be an almost uni
versal desire among the Democrats
throughout the country that Sena
tor Thurman of Ohio will be one of
the members.
C. V. Majors, Esq., of Rolls, Mo., writes,
"I take pleasure in adding my testimony
to that of hundreds of others, as to the ef
ficacy of Prickly Ash Bitters. I have not
only sold it here and in Arkansas, hut
have used it luyself, and as a regulator of
the sjoniach and bowels, I do not think
there is anything better. Its action oik
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Correspondent.)
Washington, Nov. 25th, '84
Never in the history of the city
have its inhabitants turned their fa
cos the future with more interest,
anxiety, hope or fear than they do
today. The great event ut the win
ter, the opening of the Congrvssion
ai session will take place in two
weeks; but this is scarcely n-uiem
bered, for every body is looking
three mouths beyond to the event
of a quarter of a century, the return
of the old Democratic party to pow
er Did I say "old Democratic par
ty?*'It is old only in name, and in
its identification with principles for
whicli|the word is a synonym. It is
uew in its persouel, new in its tri
itrnpli over the effete party which
it has deposed.

What will he the policy of the
administration I Wuo will the uew
president call to
How will he treat Republican office
holders f These and a thousand cog
nate questions are discussed in po
litical circles, aud they give expres
sion to a great diversity of opinion
and speculation. The questions
are interesting to all, aud vital to
few.
There arc few in Washington who
live, move, aud have being, iude
pendent of politics ; iud a change,
after twenty four years of uuinter
opted Republican rule, to a Demo
cratic administration, will affect so
ciety, industry trade, life,at the ua
tioual Capital*
, 7*"
Iu less titau a year from now a
habitue of the streets, churches or
theatres of theeity, will observe a
great change iu its personel. Thou
sands of 1'aiuiliar faoos a id Uavo do
parted and new oues will be seen in
their stead. During the last twen
ty five years Washington has grown
to be the strongest of Republican
strongholds. Yankee Republicans
from the New Euglaud states and
their' political progeny from the
West have fraternized with Carpet
Baggers aud Black Republicans
from the South—a bete.ogeneous
mass, bnt solid on the principle of
drawing their pay, aud voting for
the party that {paid them. Yon
would think that there were no
Democrats here, but this is,a mis
take. A tew of the genuine braud
have survived the quarter of a ceu
tury, and though mellowed by age
are not to bo terrified.
It wns indeed a spectacle to be
remembered, the Democratic proces
sion in houor of the election of
Cleveland last Thursday evening
It was composed in great part of
Democrats from Virginia and Mary
laud, bnt the city of Washington
famished a respectable contiugeut.
They marched over the Concrete
streets and avenues of the Capital
City with torches, banners, trans
parencies and roosters, real and ar
tificia!. The procession was fully
a mile and a halt in length, and
the tens of thousands of Kepubli
cans who thronged the pavements
on their Hoe of march, realized for
the first time, perhaps, that the
election had been decided, and that
a new chapter in the history of the
country had been began.
For once, the Independents in
policies have made their power felt,
It is difficult to say or guess how
strong that faction of the Repnbli
•an party, designating themselves
Independents, was in New York,
Connecticut aud New Jersey, hat
there can be no donbt that it was
numerous to jgive New
evefcind if not tbs other
two States named above. It fgave
rebuke to the Republican
safor putting* corrupt and nu
priuelpM candidate at the head of
tbeir ticket. The Independents in
this Congressional District, elected
E. J, Gay beyond a donbt, and
gase a plain and undisguised re
buke to the leaders here for codeav
oring to foice upon them a mao

Money to be made.
It is said tj^at dull tiunptare not
known by Ala* agent s f<$r the great
publishing house of George Stinson
& Co., of Por.lurid, Maine. The
reason ot' this exceptional success
is found iu the fact that they always
give the public linn which is keen
ly appieciatt d aud at prices that all
| can afford. At present we uuder
i stand, their agents are doing wou
| derfully well on several new , lines
I They ueed many more agents iu all
I parts of the co.iiiu v. Those who
| ueed profitable work should apply
at once. Women iio as well as
l men. Experience is not necessary,
| fpr Messrs. Si in ion <£• Co. undertake
i to show all who are willing to work,
not hard but earnestly, the path to
large success, It should bo lemeiu
bered that an agent chi Oo a hand
some business without icing away
from home over uignt. Another
-I advantage—it costs nothing to give
the bustuess a li ml. aud an agent
can devote all his time, or only his
spare moments to it. Stinson &
Co. guarantee grand success to all
who engage and follow simple and
plain directions that they give. We
have not space to explain ah beie
but full particulars will be twin free
to those who adddress the tirui
